    yes the green. you need to give the eye a rest. I personally would use a black on black if that is the dark color in the flower print. and I would put a small strip of the pink in one or three spots in the black border. not too far apart.maybe two in the bottom not too far apart and not evenly spaced and one around th right side of the border.dIt is a realy nice quilt and it need a zinger. (just my opinion):)

    It was just "ok" to me until I saw the green. The green is perfect IMHO.

    To me, the green border just screams Scarlett! I love it.
